dream Band Poll (drummers)

(1/8) > >>

nitroholic:
over the next few weeks i will be doing a poll trying to decfifer a dream band. the band will consist of 4 memebers. We start with the drummer this week.

ASturge:
there are hundreds of drummers that kick that selection's ass...

Willis:
disclaimer: I apologize as I am currently in a research methods/statistics course, I'll do my best from going off on a statistical rant.

By choosing the drummers you think qualify as the best, the poll has some bias to it. A bias to you, the investigator.  We want to eliminate this bias and make it a valid study.
 
Well if we really wanted to do this the correct way, we would accept nominations.  Everyone would vote for say 5 (or whatever) drummers and the top 10 (or whatever) would make it to the poll.  We could then have rounds of voting until one drummer has the majority.  When we settle on a drummer we will eminate black smoke from our chimney, because, well we all know that drummers are the most dysfunctional, and most replaceable members of a band.

So really we need to establish a set criteria for 1) nominations, and 2) voting.  Once we all agree, then we can move onto actually figuring out who the dream drummer is.   Yes it will take a long time, but face it folks, where are we going?  We'll all be here to participate.

Don't you love beauacracy?

Of course we can just do it your way. :)

Well, this certainly is the first "dream drummer" poll I've seen to not include Neil Pert and Danny Carrey.

Personally, I like Bill Rieflin (Ministry, RevCo, KMFDM, REM).

maxusy3k:
My vote goes for Travis Barker, (perhaps formerly) of blink-182 and now with The Transplants. Best drummer I've ever heard, though I may be living a very deprived life in that respect.
